  • FCS 2 and FCP HD express 3.5 on same system?

    Posted by Simon Weaver on March 9, 2009 at 8:44 pm

    I have FCS 2 running on my MacPro (2 x 3 ghz quad core, 8 MB Ram) looking to find out if it’s OK to install Final Cut Express HD 3.5 on the same system (different user account). Any known issues/gotchas, or should all be OK?

    Thanks in advance…..

    Both applications can be installed without any problem. That it’s installed by a different user account makes absolutely no difference at all. The only important thing is that the user be admin when the application is first run so it can be initialized by an admin user. It won’t run first time with a non-admin account.

    All the best,

    Tom
